Rainn Wilson was recently on CNN to promote The Rocker, and while he was there he sort of did the weather (video after the jump). In between laughing at everything he does, the CNN reporter mentions that Wilson was recently nominated for a best supporting actor Emmy. Which makes me wonder why he’s doing press for The Rocker. The latest TV spots for The Rocker show Rainn Wilson falling out of the attic, Rainn Wilson hitting someone with a drumstick, Rainn Wilson getting hit with a branch, Rainn Wilson falling out of a chair, and Rainn Wilson getting hit in the crotch with an extension cord. Do you really need an Emmy-nominated actor for that? Carmen Electra is perfectly capable of being hit with stuff and she works for free drinks.

I’m still holding out hope for my Jenna Fischer, crack whore, butt sex film.
Hurricane Humor is Heeelarious! Yours truly NOLA
This would be better is he did the broadcast as Fishboy.
Awww Hail Naw!
With that name, I won’t be surprised if this is his full time gig in a few years.
Wow. CNN what the fuck man?
The newsguy does more promoting for "The Rocker" than Wilson does. Which is probably a bad sign. He is more excited to do the weather than to promote his shitty movie.
Anyone else see him on VH1 Honors The Who last night. God….
I’ll take Jack Black for the win over this fuckin’ weirdo.
Why can’t I see my comments after I post them?
True story: the weatherman for one of the local NY affiliates was named Storm Field. The day your parents slap that name on you, your career patha are pretty much limited to sitcom actor, meteorologist, or porn star.
This wasn’t as funny as when FOX News hired Dog the Bounty Hunter to cover Obama’s campaign.
There was this movie ont he other day with Maggie Gyllenhall where she was a "rehabbed" junkie, and trying to get her young daughter back. Danny Trejo was in it, too…I think he was the cable repair man.
Danny Trejo is also in most Rob Zombie films.
House of 1,000 Corpses is a RZ film.
Fishboy is in H1KC.
So, technically I am sort of on topic, and made a back-handed Lebowski joke, too!
Carmen ElectraJeri Ryan is perfectly capable of being hitwith stuffand she works for free drinks.Can we just skip ahead to the part where Tarantino rehabs this dude’s career?
There snow way I’m going to see "The Rocker."
Wakka wakka!
I feel like I should have waited for this post to use my "When it Rainns, it bores" comment.
I know a stripper that would make a great Weatherperson.
Her name is Thunder Thighs.
He really looks like a William H. Macy and Quentin Tarantino fuck-trophy.
Would have only been marginally funny if he’s worn a low cut dress. Gahh, CNN has the WORST comedy writers.
This hurricane Bertha..she sounds hot right?
I wish hurricanes had stripper names, like Hurricane Chastity or Hurricane Mom.
Fek, the movie is called Sherrybaby.
No, Eib, it was something like "Log Jammers"…
Oh, sorry about that. I get my movies confused
EPIC DUUUUUUUUUUURST!
It was Sherry Baby, Fek, you numbnut:
[www.imdb.com];
"Log Jammers" was the name of the dance team of ex-hookers she put together to save the rec center.
New up!
chee chee chee
ha ha ha!
Why do you guys talk about that movie like I should fucking know it? I play Lord of the Rings online, tie my wife up for sex, and get drunk in Iowa for fun!
In fact, I didn’t even watch the movie. I saw the comemrcial for it on TBS five minutes before it came on (during Ghostbusters). What kind of gay do you think I am?
